Hello everyone, I just upgraded to 1.4 rockers with lash caps and will like to know what is the recommended valve adjustment. Also I am using chromoly push rods, I use to run .002 with the 1.1 rockers.
I greatly appreciate the advice!

The rockers have not crap to do with valve adjustments. .006 with aluminum pushrods. Loose zero with chromoly.

Great, thanks for the help. Just making sure they are no changes by upgrading the rockers.

Did you change the pushrods at the same time? I'm guessing its a stock cam if your going from 1.1 to 1.4. But I think no matter what you would need shorter pushrods.
